Arrangement View Improvements
You can use the left arrow key to navigate from an
automation lane or take lane to the main track, this will
fold the lanes as well. You can also use the left arrow key
to navigate from tracks in a group to the main Group Track.
The Arrow Left/Right shortcut
has been added to the Arrangement Track Title Bar
info text. The shortcut folds/unfolds the track.
The Arrow Left/Right shortcut has been
added to the Toggle Additional Automation Lanes info text.
The shortcut folds/unfolds additional automation lanes.
Browser
A new Devices icon has been added to Live’s Browser:
When viewing Sets in the browser, you
will see a Devices icon for device chains on a track that
contain at least one device.
When you expand a Live Set in the
browser, either from the Current Project folder, Templates
folder, or a folder of Sets you have added in Places, you
can unfold the tracks in the Set to reveal their device
chains. These chains can then be moved into the current open
Set using drag and drop or by double-clicking on the chain.
The Device settings from the original Set are retained but
any previously recorded automation is not.
Capture MIDI
In the first captured MIDI clip (in an empty set
with the transport stopped), if the detected loop is
eight bars or less, the first played note is
considered the start of the loop.
When only one note is played in the
first captured MIDI clip (in an empty set with the transport
stopped), the loop boundaries are set to the note start and
end, and the tempo is accordingly calculated, resulting in a
one, two, four, or eight bar loop. This is particularly
useful when playing a rhythmical sample with a single MIDI
note.
In Session View, new captured clips now
use the “Adaptive Grid: Narrow” setting instead of “Fixed
Grid: 1/16.”
Clip View
Added responsive Clip View options:
In Clip View, all clip properties are
now displayed in panels/tabs instead of separate panels.
Clip View properties can be arranged vertically by moving
the mouse cursor to the left from the Clip View panel edge
next to the Sample Editor/MIDI Note Editor.
Clip View properties can also be
arranged automatically, which switches between the
horizontal and vertical views depending on the height of the
Clip View area. Select “Arrange Clip View Panels
Automatically” from the View menu to enable this option.
When Clip View panels are arranged
vertically, the individual tabs (e.g. Clip, Audio,
Envelopes, etc) can be collapsed and expanded using the
arrow icon to the right of the tab header.
When Clip View panels are arranged
vertically, the individual tabs (e.g. Clip, Audio,
Envelopes, etc) can be folded/unfolded using the Arrow
Left/Right keys.
Sample information for audio clips (e.g.
sample name, sample rate, etc) is also displayed in the Clip
View and appears differently in the vertical/horizontal view
modes.
Clip View panels can now be accessed
using keyboard shortcuts. In MIDI clips, ALT + 1 switches to
the Notes panel, ALT + 2 switches to the Envelopes panel,
and ALT + 3 switches to the Note Expression panel. In audio
clips, ALT + 1 switches to the Audio panel and ALT + 2
switches to the Envelopes panel.
Clip View can be toggled to its
maximum height using the keyboard shortcut
CTRL+ALT+E (Win) / CMD+OPT+E (Mac) or the View menu
entry “Expand Clip Detail View.”
The chosen Responsive Clip View mode is
now saved in Live’s Preferences.cfg file.
When multiple audio clips are selected,
the sample properties (sample rate, bit depth, and channel
count) for all samples will be displayed in the Clip View.
If a value is not the same for all samples, the character
“*” will be displayed. In Clip View, you will also see the
total number of samples selected.
The Pitch dial is now smaller and the
Gain slider has been enlarged.
When switching between panels in Clip
View using the keyboard shortcuts ALT + 1/2/3, the panel
header that was switched to will be selected.
